Bezzera Luce PID Espresso Machine - White
Description
Overview
The Bezzera Luce represents a new benchmark in heat exchanger espresso machines, combining traditional Italian craftsmanship with modern convenience features that serious home baristas demand. Built on over 120 years of Bezzera innovation, the Luce delivers professional-grade performance in a package designed specifically for home use.
At the heart of the Luce sits a massive 2-liter copper boiler - the largest in the heat exchanger category. This isn't just about capacity; it's about thermal stability. More water means more consistent temperatures, especially when you're pulling multiple shots or steaming milk for several drinks. The heat exchanger design means you can brew and steam simultaneously, keeping your workflow smooth when making milk-based drinks. Speaking of milk, the Luce transforms cold milk into silky microfoam in just 16 seconds, thanks to its powerful steam pressure and well-designed steam wand.
The externally adjustable over-pressure valve (OPV) is a game-changer for home baristas who want to experiment. Adjustable from 4 to 13 bars without opening the machine, you can fine-tune extraction pressure to match different coffee profiles. Light roasts that need higher pressure? No problem. Want to experiment with lower pressure for darker roasts? Just turn the dial. This level of control is typically found only on machines costing thousands more.
PID temperature control brings digital precision to this traditional platform. The clear display shows exact boiler temperature, and you can adjust it in one-degree increments to match your coffee preferences. Combined with the thermal stability of the E61 group head - which uses thermosyphon circulation to maintain consistent brew temperature - you get the repeatability that turns good coffee into great coffee.
Bezzera understands that great machines should also be practical. The 4-liter water reservoir is the largest in the prosumer category, meaning you can pull dozens of shots before needing a refill. The drip tray is generously sized and easy to remove for cleaning. Every component that needs regular maintenance is easily accessible. And with four color options plus wood accent choices, the Luce adapts to your kitchen aesthetic rather than dominating it.
